We speak of the importance and power of micro-empathic moments. We also speak alot at the right level of granularity. How activism could be be reframed as finding a point where 'they' cannot hate 'us' anymore because we're involved with mutual local action. We speak about how precision is love and inquire into what would happen if we took god just a little more seriously than ourselves. This is a gem of a conversation. Enjoy! And here is the link to the release of the book (30th june2025)

Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, we're joined by Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan, the quiet powerhouse behind DeFi's fastest-growing exchange. With 75% of onchain perp volume, no VC money, and a $1B airdrop, Hyperliquid is rewriting what crypto protocols can be. We dive into Jeff's minimalist strategy, the cancel wars with toxic flow, and the JellyJelly controversy that sparked a feud with CZ. Plus: HIP-3 and the future of permissionless perps, SPAC-style hype vehicles taking over Wall Street, and why stablecoin regulation just triggered a 40% rally in Circle stock. Is crypto evolving—or just getting financialized to death?

From psychological operations to perception management, from limited hangouts to the “secret onion” model of secrecy, this episode reveals how our search for answers is being actively shaped, steered, and contained.But this isn't a story about villains. It's a call to responsibility. Kelly challenges listeners to reclaim their intellectual sovereignty, resist easy answers, and build discernment in an information landscape designed to confuse. Whether you're a skeptic, experiencer, journalist, or just UFO-curious, this talk will change how you see not just the phenomenon—but the stories we tell about it.Watch Cosmosis: UFOs & A New Reality:https://www.cosmosis.media/Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cosmosismediaSubscribe to Cosmosis:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Cosmosis.PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7KnyktIs059pbVdccD020D?si=f3835f36a8cb479dApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cosmosis-formerly-the-ufo-rabbit-hole/id1595590107Follow CosmosisX: https://x.com/cosmosis_mediaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/12EEyNVPucu/?mibextid=wwXIfrInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cosmosis.mediaListen to the Cosmosis Soundtrack by Michael Rubino:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5Xvs2NAHNbKjfW7hWkjqey?si=pJPPgIPsRZGkZjJh19UULQApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/album/cosmosis-ufos-a-new-reality-season-one-original-soundtrack/1788465117Amazon: https://amazon.com/music/player/albums/B0DS5WY5CB?marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER&musicTerritory=US&ref=dm_sh_zY05XPzhLhuow5dAgK3g2W9yC TIMESTAMPS02:55 The Role of Intelligence in UFO Narratives07:42 The Complexity of Secrecy and Perception Management16:08 The Secret Onion: Layers of Deception26:35 The Scale and Impact of Institutionalized Secrecy37:31 Heroes, Villains, and Controlled Opposition45:58 The Power of Sincere Belief48:10 The Hero Trap in UFO Narratives50:47 Counterintelligence and Narrative Control54:14 The 80-20 Rule in Disinformation55:49 Limited Hangouts and Perception Management01:00:54 Character Assassination and Narrative Flooding01:08:03 The Weaponization of Belief01:14:50 Reclaiming Intellectual Sovereignty

Most people don't realize how much of their relationship pain comes from patterns they never chose and beliefs they never questioned, and I've seen it over and over again.   In this episode, I'm joined by someone I've admired for a long time, relationship expert and author Jillian Turecki. Her new book, “It Begins With You: The Nine Hard Truths About Love That Will Change Your Life,” is the kind of work that doesn't just offer advice. It asks you to look inward. We talk about the ways we lose ourselves in relationships, the lies we tell ourselves to keep people close, and what it really means to grow after heartbreak. What does healthy love even look like? How do we know when we're giving too much? Why do so many of us feel like we have to convince someone to stay?   Jillian shares so much of her insight and experience in this conversation: why deal breakers matter, how our family stories shape our love lives, and what it actually means to make peace with the past. One of the most powerful takeaways for me was her perspective on forgiveness, and how letting go doesn't always mean condoning someone's behavior. Sometimes it just means refusing to carry the story anymore.   If you've ever felt stuck, questioned your worth in a relationship, or wondered why you keep ending up in the same kind of dynamic, this one's for you. I hope it leaves you feeling seen… and more importantly, ready to take your power back.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Jillian Turecki and Her Work 03:14 The Importance of Self-Reflection in Relationships 06:00 Defining Healthy Love 08:49 Understanding Deal Breakers in Relationships 11:57 The Complexity of Relationship Dynamics 15:08 The Myth of Fairy Tale Love 18:01 The Challenge of Convincing Someone to Love You 20:59 Processing Breakups and Moving Forward 24:00 Making Peace with Your Parents 36:49 Final Thoughts and Words of Wisdom   Links Connect with Jillian Turecki: https://www.jillianturecki.com/book https://www.instagram.com/jillianturecki/?hl=en https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jillian-on-love/id1640172049   Connect with Dr. Z: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   Get my FREE breathing exercise here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/newsletter Register for my on demand virtual courses here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/workshops Order my workbooks! *Find Your Calm / Find Good Habits* http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/books Shop my new Mindfully Messy hoodie here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/apparel Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Jesse Hoogland and Daniel Murfet, founders of Timaeus, introduce their mathematically rigorous approach to AI safety through "developmental interpretability" based on Singular Learning Theory. They explain how neural network loss landscapes are actually complex, jagged surfaces full of "singularities" where models can change internally without affecting external behavior—potentially masking dangerous misalignment. Using their Local Learning Coefficient measure, they've demonstrated the ability to identify critical phase changes during training in models up to 7 billion parameters, offering a complementary approach to mechanistic interpretability. This work aims to move beyond trial-and-error neural network training toward a more principled engineering discipline that could catch safety issues during training rather than after deployment.

Today, I want to talk about something that's really flying under the radar—but it shouldn't be. Imagine being taxed on money you haven't actually earned. Not on rent you've received, not on a capital gain you've banked, but just on the increase in value of an asset you still hold. Sounds crazy, right? Well, that's exactly what the federal government's proposed new tax on superannuation above $3 million aims to do—taxing unrealised capital gains. And while they say it'll only affect a handful of wealthy Australians today, the truth is—because that $3 million cap isn't indexed to inflation—it could very well affect many, many more of us tomorrow. Worse still, it sets a precedent. If the government can tax you on unrealised gains in your super, what's to stop them doing the same outside of super? To your investment property? Your business? Your share portfolio? So today, I've chat with Ken Raiss, Director of Metropole Wealth Advisory and Australia's leading property taxation strategist. We unpack exactly what this policy means, why it matters far more than most people think, and what smart investors should be doing now to prepare. Trust me—this episode isn't just about super. It's about the future of taxation in Australia. And whether you're a seasoned investor or just planning your financial future, you need to understand what's really going on. Takeaways  ·         The proposed tax on superannuation targets unrealised profits. ·         This tax could affect more Australians than initially stated. ·         Investors need to be aware of the implications of taxing unrealised gains. ·         The new tax policy may create a complex valuation process for assets. ·         Property investors may face increased financial burdens as a result of this tax. ·         Seeking expert financial advice is crucial in navigating these changes. ·         The tax system's integrity is at stake with these new policies. ·         Long-term planning is essential for adapting to tax changes. ·         Investors should consider alternative investment strategies outside of superannuation. ·         The proposed tax could set a precedent for future taxation policies.

The Scrum community is buzzing about a new 55-page expansion to the Scrum Guide. Is this the depth practitioners have been asking for, or is it turning the lightweight framework into bloatware? In this episode, Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om Patel and Product Manager Brian Orlando critically examine the "DLC" that claims the original guide was "deliberately oversimplified." We explore new concepts like outcome vs output definitions of done, the "supporters" role, and the inclusion of complex frameworks like Cynefin.Stick around as we debate whether these additions help teams navigate complexity or create more confusion, while highlighting crucial omissions around organizational structure and practical implementation guidance. #Scrum #Agile #ProductDevelopment= = = = = = = = = = = =LINKS= = = = = = = = = = = = http://arguingagile.comYouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@arguingagileSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/362QvYORmtZRKAeTAE57v3Applehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/agile-podcast/id1568557596= = = = = = = = = = = =Toronto Is My Beat (Music Sample)By Whitewolf (Source: https://ccmixter.org/files/whitewolf225/60181)CC BY 4.0 DEED (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en)

In this engaging conversation, Iris Goldfeder and Hannah Abad explore the intricate relationship between authenticity and trauma responses. They delve into how protective mechanisms can blur the lines of true personality, the importance of understanding the difference between showing up authentically versus proving oneself, and the journey towards building genuine confidence that is not rooted in fear. The discussion also touches on the complexities of vulnerability and how it can sometimes be performative rather than authentic. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, they provide valuable takeaways for listeners seeking to navigate their own paths of self-discovery and growth. This conversation delves into the complexities of trauma responses, the need for control in relationships, and the journey towards authenticity. The speakers discuss how individuals often overshare or withdraw as protective mechanisms against being hurt. They emphasize the importance of self-awareness, vulnerability, and taking small steps towards authenticity in both personal and professional contexts. The dialogue highlights the significance of self-love and the necessity of seeking support from others in the journey of personal growth.

She shares practical guidance for adoptive parents—how to talk about adoption, how to recognize adoption-related trauma, and how to support their children through it without over-pathologizing them. From early separation and normative crises to adoption-competent therapy and systemic change, this episode is filled with wisdom every member of the adoption constellation needs to hear.Important LinksDr. Joyce Maguire PavaoEmail: kinnect@gmail.comThe Family of AdoptionSweet Peach Tree – Clean, natural hair + skin products for melanin-rich families.Use code ROADMAP10 for 10% off your first orderRG Adoption ConsultingTake our FREE quiz: “Am I Ready to Adopt?”Chapters00:00 Celebrating Milestones and Community Engagement03:14 Understanding Adoption: A Lifelong Journey05:48 The Child-Centric Approach in Adoption09:13 Normative Crises in Adoption12:05 The Impact of Early Adoption Experiences14:55 Creating Adoption Competent Therapists18:05 Ambiguous Loss in Adoption20:50 Supporting Children Through Invisible Loss24:01 Indirect Communication Strategies for Parents26:54 Recognizing Trauma in Adopted Children30:06 Understanding Behavioral Responses in Adoptees33:02 The Complexity of Adoption Experiences36:13 Encouraging Open Conversations in Adoption38:57 The Role of Parents in Navigating Adoption Challenges41:58 Empowering Adoptees to Share Their Stories46:31 Navigating Family Dynamics in Adoption49:41 The Vulnerability of Pre-Adoptive Parents55:29 The Need for Honest Conversations in Adoption57:40 Challenges in the Adoption System01:02:33 The Importance of Community in Healing01:10:31 Therapeutic Approaches for Adoptive Families01:12:32 Understanding Healing vs. Fixing01:16:29 Building Connections and Community01:23:59 Embracing the Truth of AdoptionTune in to The Adoption Roadmap Podcast every Wednesday and Friday mornings.

They discuss how fictional narratives, particularly from shows like “The Walking Dead,” influence their views on survival and morality in extreme situations.    Terra shares her personal experiences with trauma and how they shape her identity, while Nick reflects on the challenges of being defined by his past on reality TV.    They also delve into the complexities of navigating public perception, especially in relation to their advocacy work and political beliefs, emphasizing the importance of staying true to oneself amidst external pressures.    They go on to discuss the complexities of navigating public reactions to personal opinions, particularly in the realm of social media and Reddit.   The conversation continues on to the ethical responsibilities of podcasters, the importance of empowering survivors through education, and the challenges of maintaining personal relationships in the public eye.    The dialogue emphasizes the importance of accountability and respect in storytelling, content, and the impact of public perception on the personal lives of participants and subjects.   I hope this conversation enlightens you on the importance of ethics in content creation and helps you show up in the world with your eyes wide open.    Chapters   00:00 Introduction to Terra Newell 05:29 The Dirty John Experience 10:54 Turning Trauma into Empowerment 19:30 The Ethics of True Crime 24:04 Navigating Public Life and Personal Identity 34:01 Survival Strategies Inspired by Fiction 37:04 The Complexity of Morality in Survival Situations 41:01 Personal Reflections on Identity and Trauma 49:04 Navigating Public Perception and Personal Advocacy 55:51 The Intersection of Politics and Personal Beliefs 01:03:28 Navigating Public Reactions and Personal Accountability 01:05:22 Ethics in True Crime Podcasting 01:11:01 Empowering Survivors Through Education 01:18:22 The Impact of Reality TV on Personal Lives 01:22:10 Maintaining Relationships in the Public Eye Find Terra Newell here:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terranewell  Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terrasbaddyclub/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@terranewell  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@terranewellsurvivor  Website: https://www.terranewellsurvival.com/  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/terras-baddy-club Find Nick Thompson here:   Nick Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nthompson513/  UCAN Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_ucan_foundation/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EyesWideOpenContent  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickthompson13/    UCAN Foundation: https://theucanfoundation.org/  Website: https://www.engagewithnick.com/

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    Not seeing results in dog training? I'm breaking down why that happens and how layering your dog's learning is the key to creating real-world success. We often believe our dogs are “trained” when things look great in controlled settings but when connection disappears, distractions take over, or confidence fades in new environments, it's a sign that a layer of learning is missing. I'll walk you through how the layers of the 5C Pyramid build lasting reliability and focus, a personal story from my own training, and how shaping behavior through intentional layers leads to long-term success in agility, sports, and everyday life.   In this episode, you'll hear:   • Why your dog might be great in training games but struggle in real-world situations. • How building intentional layers in training leads to real-world success with your dog • The concept of “real world success” and how it evolves as your relationship with your dog grows. • A deep dive into the 5 Cs of dog training: Connection, Clarity, Confidence, Challenge, and Complexity. • The difference between a connected, driven, and detached dog and why that matters. • A powerful question to ask yourself in every training moment to stay aligned with your long-term goals. • How intentional layers build deep connection and lasting success. • A personal story about my own dog and how the layers of learning led us all the way to the world championships.   Crate Games: Get Crate Games Online - https://get.crategames.com/ Learn How To Play ItsYerChoice: Learn how to play the ItsYerChoice (IYC) Game - https://recallers.com/iycsummit-join/   Resources:   1.
